Madison Bill (Continued from Page One) Austin of Lexington, floater from Madison and Henderson counties, according to advices from Nashville. Townsend stated today in Nashville that he had not seen a copy of the bill and until he had studied it he could not say how he would stand on it.

Rep. Austin is said to have declared that he did not believe he should become involved in the controversy, saying that he regarded the measure as a purely local one and that it should be handled as such by Townsend and Midyett. All the purchasing in the highway department of the county beyond $50 is done by County Judge August Wilde on a competitive bidding basis under terms of the county purchasing act passed by the last legislature. Members of the board are allowed to buy items up to $50 without competitive bidding under the present law, it is pointed out. For the measure to become a law it must pass three readings in both houses and have the signature of the governor.

To date it has, passed one reading in the senate and will likely pass one reading in the house late today. REV. CLAYBROOK CHAPEL SPEAKER AT UNION TODAY 'The Rev. Lynn Claybrook, pastor Baptist Churches at Maury City and Friendship. was guest speaker at Union University Chapel this morning.

Smith Funeral Home in charge. It is possible for an airplane to make a safe landing with only half a propeller. Unemployment (Continued from page one) an argument between Chairman Dies (D-Tex) of the committee investigating un-American activities and Rep. Dingell (D-Mich) as to whether Dies' committee had cused Attorney General Frank Murphy, former Michigan governor, of being a Communist. Dies denied this was true.

Dingell, who demanded different personnel if the un-American committee was to be recreated, contended Dies at least had permitted the impression to go out that Murphy had Communist leanings. Representative Woodrum (D-Va) told the house that conference report, compromising senate-house differences $725,000,000 relief bill, would be brought up "the first thing tomorrow." Secretary Wallace reported that a two-hour conference with senators and representatives from Southern states had failed to produce a definite solution for the huge cotton surplus problem. Altmeyer, discussing social security, before the house ways and means committee, detailed administration recommendations for: 1. Liberalizing and speeding up old age insurance payments. 2.

Extending old insurance to several million more workers. 3. Providing for disability insurance and for aid to widows and orphans. Chairman Doughton (D. N.

said the hearings, would be open not only security advocates but also to old age pension proponents. Chief among the latter are Dr. Francis E. Townsend, originator of the $200-a-month plan, and officials of the general welfare association. While the social security hearings were getting under way, the house itself was called on to decide whether a special committee to study government reorganization should be renewed at this session.

Rep. Warren (D. N. announced he would submit to the Rules Committee a new bill to reorganize federal agencies. He declared it would meet all the objections which caused the legislation to be shelved last year.

In the senate, committees were called into session to consider a "cost of production" farm plan and the president's attempt to revive the Florida ship ca'nal and the Passamaquoddy power project. The Senate Judiciary Committee was confronted with an intraparty fight over confirmation Floyd Roberts, appointed a federal judge in Virginia over the objections of the state's senators. The $725,000,000 relief bill was before the house for final action, with only the question of WPA wage differentials remaining to be settled. The house originally limited regional differentials to 25 per cent, but this provision was rejected by the senate. A senate-house committee decided to let the house reconsider the subject.

A compromise was expected. The committee agreed to a provision preventing the president from blanketing into the civil service temporary government employes paid from relief funds. Mr. Roosevelt told reporters that he was modifying a previous order, which goes into effect today, will make about 30,000 WPA employes and 45.000 other federal workers eligible for civil service. Legislators said final enactment of the relief measure would invalidate the order insofar as it would apply to WPA employes.

The social security hearings were expected sooner or later to bring outspoken disagreement over the best way to help the aged. Pension proponents claim they can do the job more quickly, since their plans contemplate beginning pension payments within a year or so after enactment of a general federal trancactions or income tax. Administration spokesmen say expansion of the social security program is the only sound way. The ultimate aim of the old age insurance program, according to President Roosevelt and spokesmen for the Social Security Board, is to cover everybody in the country. Some persons believe this might be done in the 'next few years.

Meanwhile, persons over 65 who are not covered yet are in need may 'obtain old age assistance paid jointly by the federal and state governments.
